Well the Arduino UNO kit has arrived and I'm very impressed. Lots of things to try and I'm already well beyond the flashing LED tutorial that is the electronics version of HelloWorld.

Some quick experimenting has shown that the servo is easy to position using this example. Similarly I have built up a quick serial communication app that replies to a specific string (based on this). Interestingly you need to tweak PUTTY to talk to it correctly
